Our Workmonitor 2025 report shows that a new workplace baseline is emerging — where success is defined not just by what we do, but by why we do it, how we do it and who we do it with. Talent expectations are continuing to evolve, shaped by economic uncertainty, technological advancements and shifting social landscapes. There’s a clear mission here for employers. By acknowledging the new baseline — the why, who and how — and closing the gaps in expectations between talent and employers, organizations can gain trust and drive meaningful, talent-centric progress.
